Classes​

YBinding​

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:454

Experimental

A Yjs 14 binding for one editor and one shared root.

Every container (the root, and every node stored as its own Y.Node) holds one sequence of text, child nodes and line markers; see the package README for the layout.

Warnings (read only states, recoveries, the opt-in self-check) go to the editor's onWarn, typed by their code (see YWarning and isYWarning), once a remote change has been applied in full: never from inside a Yjs observer or transaction. A handler that throws does not affect syncing.

Constructors​

Constructor​

Accessors​

doc​
Get Signature​

get doc(): Doc

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:639

Experimental

The shared document.

Returns​

Doc

editor​
Get Signature​

get editor(): LexicalEditor

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:634

Experimental

The bound editor.

Returns​

LexicalEditor

pins​
Get Signature​

get pins(): ReadonlyMap<string, { by?: readonly string[]; kind: StorageKind; }>

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:654

Experimental

Storage kinds the document records per node type (see the README).

Returns​

ReadonlyMap<string, { by?: readonly string[]; kind: StorageKind; }>

root​
Get Signature​

get root(): YNode

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:644

Experimental

The shared root this binding reads and writes.

Returns​

YNode

status​
Get Signature​

get status(): YBindingStatus

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:649

Experimental

See YBindingStatus; onStatus reports changes.

Returns​

YBindingStatus

undoManager​
Get Signature​

get undoManager(): UndoManager | null

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:662

Experimental

The collaborative undo manager; null when undo is disabled.

Returns​

UndoManager | null

Methods​

$resolveCursor()​

$resolveCursor(cursor): { anchor: PointType; focus: PointType; } | null

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:4400

Experimental

Resolve a cursor to Lexical points (call inside a read or update).

Parameters​
cursor​

YCursor

Returns​

{ anchor: PointType; focus: PointType; } | null

dispose()​

dispose(): void

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:890

Experimental

Disconnect from the document and the editor (start returns this).

Returns​

void

getCursor()​

getCursor(): YCursor | null

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:4238

Experimental

The local selection as relative positions (JSON), or null.

Returns​

YCursor | null

initialize()​

initialize(): void

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:929

Experimental

Call after the provider's first sync. An empty root is marked with this layout and gets the editor's current content, unless an older layout's root (root, root-v2) has content: such a document is read only, and must be converted instead (a binding with convert: true writes the layout root next to the old one). Anything else is read.

The initial content (including an update still pending, such as editor.update(seed) right before this call) is not part of the undo history. Into a pristine top-level root (one that has never held an item or an attribute), it is written once, under a client id derived from those exact bytes (see seedUpdate), applied to the document as they are and read back like any document, so that two clients initializing the same document with the same content at once write the same items (one copy), and one id never holds two payloads; anywhere else, with this client's own id.

Returns​

void

redo()​

redo(): boolean

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:3985

Experimental

Redo what undo undid; see undo.

Returns​

boolean

start()​

start(): () => void

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:686

Experimental

Start listening; read the document if it is already initialized.

Returns​

() => void

undo()​

undo(): boolean

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:3980

Experimental

Undo this client's last change in the document (collaborative undo). Returns whether there was one; false while the binding is not active.

Returns​

boolean

Interfaces​

YBindingOptions​

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:299

Experimental

Options of YBinding (and YCollabExtension).

Properties​

captureTimeout?​

optional captureTimeout?: number | null

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:303

Experimental

Undo capture timeout in ms (default 500); null disables undo.

clientIDRange?​

optional clientIDRange?: ClientIDRange

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:338

Experimental

The range of the document's client ids: 'uint53' (default, Yjs 14's ids, left as they are) or 'uint32' (kept in 32 bits, for servers on yrs before 0.28; see ClientIDRange).

convert?​

optional convert?: boolean

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:332

Experimental

Initialize even when an older layout's root has content: for a converter writing the layout root of an existing document.

onStatus?​

optional onStatus?: (status) => void

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:309

Experimental

Called when status changes, once the binding's work is done and Yjs is idle (like warnings, never inside a Yjs observer or transaction). Several changes in one such step report the last.

Parameters​
status​

YBindingStatus

Returns​

void

root?​

optional root?: YNode<any>

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:301

Experimental

The shared root to bind; defaults to doc.get('lexical-y').

selfCheck?​

optional selfCheck?: boolean

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:320

Experimental

Read every line a local write touched back from Yjs and compare it with the editor; mismatches are reported to the editor's onWarn (see SELF_CHECK_WARNING). Structural changes (and remote changes) also compare a fresh read of the whole container: every time for containers of up to 256 lines and nodes, and with probability 256 / size for bigger ones, so the expected cost of an edit stays bounded. Default: off. A debugging aid: turn it on in tests and development builds to catch binding bugs.

selfCheckSample?​

optional selfCheckSample?: number

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Binding.ts:327

Experimental

The fraction of changes the self-check samples (default 1): of local writes, and of remote changes, where a sampled check that finds the editor differing from the shared content also reads those containers again (see selfCheck).

Experimental

The configuration of YCollabExtension.

Properties​

captureTimeout​

captureTimeout: number | null

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/YExtension.ts:59

Experimental

See YBindingOptions.selfCheckSample; null keeps the default (1).

synced​

synced: boolean

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/YExtension.ts:48

Experimental

Initialize as soon as the extension registers: use it when the document is already synced (a headless writer, a converter, tests). Otherwise call binding.initialize() after the provider's first sync.

Experimental

YUnsupportedConfigData​

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:184

ClientIDRange = "uint53" | "uint32"

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/ClientID.ts:25

Experimental

The range of the client ids a document writes with.

  • 'uint53': Yjs 14's default (random 53-bit ids).
  • 'uint32': ids that fit in 32 bits, for servers that read client ids as 32-bit numbers (yrs before 0.28, e.g. y-crdt relays on 0.23): with a 53-bit id, such a server stores the author's content under a truncated id, and the author receives its own content back as another client's on reconnect, duplicating the document.

StorageKind​

StorageKind = "line" | "format" | "group" | "nested"

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Schema.ts:270

Experimental

How @lexical/y stores an element type; see describeStorage.

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:222

Experimental

Why a class type whose declarations make it a line, a format or a group is stored as a nested node.

Type Literal​

{ found: unknown; key: string; reason: "malformed"; supported: number; }

The record at key is not a layout record; found is its value.

Type Literal​

{ reason: "missing" | "removed"; supported: number; }

The root has content but no layout record ('missing'), or the record was removed while the binding was writing ('removed').

Type Literal​

{ reason: "legacy-roots"; roots: readonly string[]; supported: number; }

Older layouts' roots, roots, hold content.

YWarning​

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:296

Experimental

A warning the binding passes to the editor's onWarn: a LexicalWarning whose code decides the type of its data (narrow it with isYWarning, then switch over code, and over data.reason).

YWarningCode​

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:72

Experimental

The codes of the LexicalWarnings the binding passes to the editor's onWarn. Codes are public API: a code is never renamed, and never reused for another condition; new codes may be added in any release.

LAYOUT_VERSION​

const LAYOUT_VERSION: 2 = 2

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/constants.ts:35

Experimental

The newest layout version this binding reads and writes. A new document records version 1; the first member entry of a set-valued NodeState written into a document also records 2 (clients that only read version 1 then open it read only instead of missing the members).

Experimental

The document stores a node type in a way its class cannot be stored: read only. data: YStorageMismatchData.

UNKNOWN_NODE_TYPES_WARNING​

const UNKNOWN_NODE_TYPES_WARNING: "@lexical/y/unknown-node-types" = '@lexical/y/unknown-node-types'

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:24

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:60

Experimental

A node holds named slots where the document cannot store them: not written, read only. data: YUnsupportedSlotsData.

UNSYNCED_VALUE_WARNING​

const UNSYNCED_VALUE_WARNING: "@lexical/y/unsynced-value" = '@lexical/y/unsynced-value'

Defined in: packages/lexical-y/src/internal/Warnings.ts:55

Experimental
